BSO firefighter arrested

Lance Armbruster charged with battery

A firefighter in Broward County is charged with battery after police say he was involved in a domestic dispute with his girlfriend.

Lance Armbruster was arrested Tuesday in Jupiter.

According to an arrest affidavit, Armbruster's girlfriend told police the two got into a "domestic altercation" but didn't elaborate further. The officer who wrote the report noted she had a cut on her bottom lip.

The woman's daughter told police her mother and Armbruster got into an argument and that he pushed her against the driver's seat and driver's door of their vehicle.

Police say Armbruster denied the incident. He was being held in the Palm Beach County jail.
